What does this mean in practice? Will Sourcehut move to Gemini-only? Will you stop using the web for anything except advertising Gemini? Are you suggesting a more gradual multilateral migration?
- ddevault 6y agoI am working on a gradual migration, personally. My blog is now dual HTTP/Gemini and I've started writing some Gemini-exclusive posts. There are a number of blockers, but I would ultimately like to also make SourceHut available over Gemini. My goal is to persuade people that the alternative is compelling and get them to join up of their own volition. I'm not going to pull the rug out of anyone who is already relying on HTTP/HTML to get things done.

Yeah, I agree that saying “Thing X is bad; don't use it” is usually less persuasive than saying “Thing Y is good; try it!”... and then Thing Y gradually displaces Thing X.
